[Colonel Kangaroo]

Unlike the vile crimes committed by Union troops in Missouri that were described in post 835 and were condemned by Union authorities, Sheridan's actions were legitimate military measures that hastened the end of the war. Just like the American bombing campaign in World War II, if it will bring peace and save lives, I say burn, baby, burn!

As far your remark about "degenerate Yankee scum", I think we should condemn all vile behavior during that period, whether it was perpetrated by degenerate Yankee scum or degenerate Confederate scum.

the acts to "hasten the end of the war" in the Law of War are called: WAR CRIMES & CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.

what DAMNyankees like sheridan/sherman, the WAR CRIMINAL, did in dixie was NO DIFFERENT than what we HANGED Japanese GEN Yamashita for doing in Manila.

ALL the DAMNyankee WAR CRIMINALS, who "suffered troops under their command to commit acts, which if committed in peacetime would be common crimes, may be adjudged by any international tribunal, as may choose to take jurisdiction over such war criminal", deserved HANGING.
